Rated 76, Ceyhan sets the standard but is giving plenty of weight to the less-exposed three-year-olds. HOT NATURED makes most appeal of those given she was runner-up at Newcastle on her earlier debut and trainer Karl Burke has a fine strike rate at the track. Magic Pass has failed to threaten in a couple of starts at Wolverhampton and Flashy Snapper made a modest debut at Chelmsford in November. But both should be noted in the betting along with Albert's Back.
